Step 5: I'm Your BbBasscreator

Step 6: I'm pickin up good vVviiBbrations

ok so now you have a complete install like me... but then you realize you just a lot of hard work into an enclosure with a really cheap crappy sub in ...

Hello hello. First off this is my first instruct-able and as such i welcome and questions and comments that come my way and will entertain them as best i can.

My scooby is kinda small ... so space management is a must and was my main concern for this build. This box can built by any novice (like me) with minimal effort and time for around $100 in material (excluding the sub/amp). Enjoy

Step 1: Can you feel.... the bass?

first do some math and measuring as every car will be different. i have a 2007 Subaru Impreza 2.5i and i came up with an enclosure size of 5and 7/8" total enclosure height {6.75" tall with sub } 12.5" wide and 14.75" long.

After you measure find the surface area of the cube with LxWxH for each side (a cube has 6 sides) and go out and procure your acrylic... or lexan... or whatever.

***side note*** i chose acrylic b/c its cheaper than lexan and way better than wood for its size... at least that's what i think i learned from all those forums.

*** fun fact *** the enclosure is also not supposed to be a symmetrical shape due to re-verb and sound distortion .... something along those lines.... but i have had little if any problems like that with my build.

*** also under my seat i have re routed some cables for the air bag sensor and bent some metal out of the way and gained some extra room***

*** remember to leave height for butt clearance if you ever plan on having a passenger***

Sorry it took so long to reply I have not had time for projects in a while. I used a whole saw and a fine tooth jig saw cuz I didn't need it to be a perfect cut for the speaker hole. For the clean cuts I used a table saw at a low blade setting. ... If it is thin acrylic I would suggest using a razor blade knife to score it and then snap it... Practice first on some scrap piecesd

ahh. well thank you. i love my suby. anyways. i used a table saw to cut most of my acrylic since it was almost 1/4 inch thick. it was very effective ... i also used a hand held jig saw which worked better than expected. thank you for the question. please let me know if i can help with anything else.
